Turkish scientist finds success abroad
Abstract:
Since working abroad, Ali Erdemir has received several R&D 100 awards from R&D Magazine, a leading science magazine in the United States that revealed the top scientific and technological innovations of the past year.
Utilizing nanotechnology to develop the area of research, Erdemir said the second biggest development in this field was that he and his colleagues had manipulated a nearly frictionless diamond-like surface.
This innovation could be used in many different areas, such as computer and automobile technology. He said a computer's hard disk's performance could increase 10 times if the innovative new diamond technology was utilized.
"Indeed, if we could use this technology in all mechanical systems we could solve the energy problem altogether," said Erdemir.
